Unrest’s Tweets
I’m a loyal customer who would love & sincerely appreciate if you’d add back on the #platform especially W/ #LongCovid pts. developing symptoms indistinguishable from ME/CFS. Plus it’s still so important for our families/doctor’s/medical professionals to see

Last two days of watching @unrestfilm are upon us! Still a sincere request to @netflix to keep the documentary accessible on a platform like this. #MECFS twitter.com/nuri_numinous/…

Help needed for my severely ill friend Nevra in Pakistan.
First of all, I’m sorry I haven’t been able to be on Twitter in the past months to help raise awareness of #MyalgicE/#MEcfs. I’ve been too ill.
Coming here now to ask for help for my friend Nevra in Pakistan.

"The Long Haul" is officially *published* today. It's the story of millions with #longcovid, including me, a science writer. It's the story of how patients collectively found their voice, how they fought for change, how the world will benefit. amzn.to/3UY15br

Watched today for the first time and haven’t stopped crying since. I’ve got mild to moderate ME/CFS so nowhere as bad as those in the doc but it’s the first time I’ve felt heard/seen with this illness on tv. Highly recommended, on Netflix!

Watching on Netflix was the first time that dozens of friends and family members truly understood what my life with ME/CFS really meant-perceptions were completely changed. Nothing else in my 16+ years w/MECFS has come close to helping people believe and understand!
